There&#8217;s not a trace of boastfulness or embellishment. He speaks honestly and from the heart.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years, George&#8217;s courage under fire earned him two silver stars, a bronze star and six Purple Hearts.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In 28 years, I&#8217;ve had 31 bullets put in (my) body and I keep going,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the last round of bullets ended his military career.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I took 14 rounds from the ankle to the shoulder,&#8221; George said.<\/p>\n<p>That was in Afghanistan in 2011.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Where do we find such men?

He said he &#8220;ran into the same problem&#8221; dealing with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs before his records were located.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No one&#8217;s able to track down my records for some reason,&#8221; George said. &#8220;It&#8217;s aggravating the hell out of me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This reporter requested to view a copy of his DD-214.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t have one on me today.

(is) still sitting in New York.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>George explained he left the Oxford house he initially moved into because it was &#8220;too big&#8221; and that&#8217;s why all his stuff is currently in storage. &#8220;I&#8217;m staying with someone else right now,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Given this situation, George said he has no immediate access to any of his military records.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;None of it, right at the moment,&#8221; he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yeah, well, sounds plausible&#8230;not. he had all of that bling to wear for his antics on Memorial Day, but he didn&#8217;t have one slip of paper to prove that he earned all of that stuff?

He likes to make up things,&#8221; said Patricia, who resides in Wiggins, Mississippi. &#8220;He told the woman he was married to, when they got together, he said that his parents were millionaires and wouldn&#8217;t give him his money . . . If I have a million dollars, I&#8217;d like to know where.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>His estranged older brother, Richard H. George, 46, also of Wiggins, Mississippi, made no bones about George&#8217;s claims being bogus.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To put it bluntly, he&#8217;s full of (crap). None of the things that I read (about George&#8217;s alleged military career) were factual,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know where he would come up with this plan or scam or con or whatever you want to call it.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The National Personnel Records Center agrees;<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?attachment_id=60437\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-60437\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Nicholas-George-FOIA-230x300.jpg\" alt=\"Nicholas George FOIA\" width=\"230\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-60437\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Nicholas-George-FOIA-230x300.jpg 230w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Nicholas-George-FOIA-256x333.jpg 256w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Nicholas-George-FOIA.jpg 518w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 230px) 100vw, 230px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?attachment_id=60436\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-60436\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Nicholas-George-Assignments-300x239.jpg\" alt=\"Nicholas George Assignments\" width=\"300\" height=\"239\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-60436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Nicholas-George-Assignments-300x239.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Nicholas-George-Assignments-417x333.jpg 417w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Nicholas-George-Assignments.jpg 762w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Seventeen months of service, discharged as a Private E-1.

He doesn&#8217;t look old enough to have served in the Korean War or World War II &#8211; he would have had to serve in one or the other to have 3 awards of the CIB. <\/p>\n<p>The Combat Action Badge worn on the right breast pocket is wrong, too. 3 CIBs and a CAB, too? That&#8217;s a combatin&#8217; MFer. Those &#8220;Airborne Ranger wings&#8221; are not authorized. The Expert Badge is on the wrong pocket. But you really can&#8217;t expect a private to know where all of that stuff goes. That SF DUI on the Army flash on a green beret is a nice touch, too.<\/p>\n<p>So thanks for making it easy to spot you as a phony, George, you goofy-looking POS.<\/p>\n<p>It looks like he got to Aschaffenburg, Germany the year after I left that great city.
